Write your ebook and start a blog at the same time for best results.
This way you can build a list of interested prospects while you write your book.
The blog starts a conversation between you and your target audience and allows you to interact with them and get feedback while you complete your ebook.
Decide on a title for your ebook as quickly as you can.
Then purchase the domain name for the title.
When you start your blog it should have the same name as your ebook will so that people can find you.
Be sure to use keywords in your domain name that relate to the topic you are writing on.
As you write, make posts to your blog that go along with what you are writing.
Over time you will build a list of readers who will comment on your blog and give you ideas for your ebook at the same time.
When you are finished writing and ready to sell your ebook online, announce it on your blog and give your readers a discount if they purchase it by a specific date.
Hopefully, you will have made a connection with your readers and they will be anxious to purchase your completed product.
Blogging will also get you in the habit of writing every day and will make the entire process go more smoothly.
You will find that the more you write, the more comments your readers will make, and that will add to the quality of your writing.
Working with a mentor you can assist you during this process will also make it more profitable for you in the long run.
